I devoted several days on a GTX 460 card and got this poly. I think it is about average since Msieve states:

[CODE]expecting poly E from 2.27e-13 to > 2.61e-13[/CODE] [/QUOTE]So, have you come up with a plan on this? I could probably throw some cycles at it in a week or two, if you want to make it a team project. (I'm nearing the end of the sieving on a c168; maybe another week or so to go.)

No plan. I know interest has waned recently. If people have a few cycles here or there that would be great. I'm not looking to coordinate (if it turns into) a sieving project.

I'm not looking to coordinate (if it turns into) a sieving project.[/QUOTE]Alright; if it turns out that there is any interest, I'll coördinate and do the post procressing.

Roughly how long a project is this? I think I'm willing to contribute a thread-month on an i7-windows64. Is that 5% of what's needed, or 1%?

I've never done a group sieve, but I have done a few OPN numbers up to 140 digits or so.

I'd say this was about a 2.5 CPU-year job (32-bit large primes, 15e, aim for 300 million relations). So one thread-month would be around 3-4%.

I'll pledge 10, 12, 16M rels (initially). I just completed a 4 month SNFS project so a little burnt out on long winded runs.

The biggest team job I see on a quick search is this one that took ~1.5 months for a c172 with these parameters:[code]rlim: 40000000
alim: 40000000
lpbr: 30
lpba: 31
mfbr: 60
mfba: 90
rlambda: 2.6
alambda: 3.6[/code][QUOTE=RichD;341064]I'll pledge 10, 12, 16M rels (initially). I just completed a 4 month SNFS project so a little burnt out on long winded runs.[/QUOTE]Unfortunately, this is probably going to be long winded....

[QUOTE=schickel;341084]Unfortunately, this is probably going to be long winded....[/QUOTE]

That's what I meant when I didn't want to take ownership. I'll jump in and out with rels if others are also willing.

Any other pledgers?

It may be more productive to switch to some other large orphan sequence: 1560? 5250? 1992? or 7920? or other?

I think there is enough interest, and outside resources, to pick up one or two of these sequences.

Does anyone know where they currently stand? Some ECM, more ECM, ready for GNFS?

I will try to get the ball rolling once a sequence and needs are defined.
